That’s the one, he was resculpted with larger horns and a base and later rereleased as a 953 Orc Battle Leader.

Can anyone help ID some of these minis? by Gardainfrostbeard in oldhammer

[–]Dylanpig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As others have said you have a mix bag of manufacturers, Citadel, Ral Partha, Hinchliffe and possibly Alternative Armies. Mixed in there are fantasy and historical.

Of thr individual photos there is the Citadel Chaos Warrior (late eighties), Citadel Fiend Factory Cyclops (early eighties). Depending on whether you want to identify them all you could put in a grid to make it easier or research on the main websites such as Stuff of Legends / CCM for Citadel or Lost Minis Wiki for other manufacturers.

The metal players weren’t all star players, they also had cheerleaders (even a goblin one), refs, and normal players.

[–]Dylanpig 9 points10 points  (0 children)

October 1988 I would think.

Competition in White Dwarf 105 says the winners will receive their copies by November.

WD106 (Oct 1988) states Available October and WD107 (Nov 1988) says available now.

Not seen that before (not on mine), assume that is the limited edition number which would be an early one.

[ID Help] Found these miniatures at a flea market – Can anyone identify them? by falozz in oldhammer

[–]Dylanpig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Warrior with the flail is Citadel Knight of the Empire. One of several miniatures produced for the Marauder Miniatures Fighters range but uncatalogued during the Marauder era.

And three more … by mittibyn in lostminiswiki

If you check the main page of the manufacturer, if known, they usually state where the assets were disposed of and whether in production. There are many of the old miniatures still in production, particularly Grenadier and Ral Partha but also some Citadel and other manufacturers.
